I don't notice if it's related, but I've just noticed that if I press
reset during boot (but before the hang), the board still powers down a
few seconds later (before the next attempt at booting gets going).

Resetting on line 19 of http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/560790/ was OK,
whereas resetting on line 40 was not.
